Chapter 1: Dreams and Books

I stood there completely clueless of what was happening to me. First of all, I'm standing in the middle of a field with no one with me or any town nearby. What the heck am I even doing here?

As I looked around hopefully finding something, which I did not, a pair of strong arms wrapped itself around my body.

I've got to admit, I have a pretty nice figure: not too fat, not too thin, just right. Anyway, going back to where I was, a pair of strong arms wrapped around me. My first thought was to elbow the kidnapper but I realized that I have no control over my body.

I looked back and smiled at the beautiful sight. He was a man in his mid-twenties with black wavy hair, an ash colored skin and a stigmata on his forehead?! The hell…?

"Joido…" Was that his name? Weird.

"What is it, dear?" The man's umber skin changed into a lighter one, his golden eyes dulled into an alluring shade of midnight.

"Tell me you love me?" I asked.

"I love you. Forever and always, no matter how long it takes, I will find you. My Dear Kallen."

"Then I shall wait for you…" My eyes closed slowly, as if I tried my best to stay awake.

I must have missed the fact that when I closed my eyes, the man, Joido, started to cry. Tears streamed down his face, dripping on my pale cheeks.

Finally! "She's dying." That was all he could say. Impossible.

"I'm sorry Joido." A girl about 13 years old approached the man who cradled my weak body.

"Road," that's her name? "It's not your fault."

The girl bent down on her knees, held her hands towards mine and began caressing it. "I'm sorry Kallen." She began to cry.

"It shouldn't have ended like this..." A smile formed on my lips as I tried to gather all the strength to say my last words.

"This is not the end."

And with that, my dream ended.


I woke up drenched in sweat. My whole body was shaking vigorously and I couldn't do anything to control it.

I died.

I died?

I couldn't believe it, how can I die? Who was that woman? That can't be me... My name is not Kallen, it's even far from it. My name is Miraila, and I know it's weird, but this made me really confused. Who the hell is Kallen?

Shaking off anything that's related to what I dreamt about, I looked outside my window, only to realize that I woke up too early.

It was dark outside, but the moon shone at its brightest. Probably it's past twelve and everyone may have just slept.

No matter how hard I tried to go back to sleep, I couldn't. It was already ruined.

I got up and headed to the ideal place where my mind could cool off: the library. I'm sure a certain someone might be there to accompany me.

As I walked through the empty corridors, I can't help but reminisce about my first time in the Black Order HQ. It has been five years since I joined the order together with my innocence and nephew, Skylar.

When we first got here, Komui was absolutely fascinated with Sky. His innocence was unique among the others. Sky could turn himself into a scythe, but he could not wield himself. He needed someone. Someone who is compatible to use him, or else if the synchro rate between him and another user is low, there is a high possibility that he will burn and hurt his own partner.

Which is why I am paired with him. So far, I am the only one who could only use Skylar. Maybe it's because of our closeness, but I felt different because Sky's innocence isn't mine. It felt as if I was just a tool for him to dispose once he finds a better replacement.

I know I've always had that insecurity, but after six months, I finally found mine. It was a parasitic type that was found on my bloodstream. I could harden and sharpen my blood. Komui made me specific daggers that I use to inflict wounds that don't scar on any part of my body and preventing the injuries to harm the system itself.

Four years of fighting akumas, I started to master my skills. Skylar grew into a fine young man and we still work as team up until now.

I stopped on my tracks only realizing that I was walking by memory towards the library. I took a deep breath, pushed the door open creating a creaking sound that filled the empty halls. There, seated on one of the chairs, was a familiar redhead reading a book called Lavi.

"You're still awake?" He removed a pile of books on the chair beside him, setting it on the table, offering me to sit down.

"Yeah, can't sleep. How about you?" I examined the books on the table before sitting. Most were about history and innocence.

"I guess we're the same then." Lavi put the book he was reading down, patted my head, and then went back to reading it again.

The whole time, he read information heavy books, while I read novels that were mostly fictional. I remember the first time I met him, and it was a terrible meeting. I was different back then. I did not express my emotions openly. But then, Lavi came along.

He was my first partner, and amazingly, he and Sky got along together just fine. For me, not that much, I hated people who were noisy. But in one snap… I became one of them.

As our mission together increased, we got closer. That's it, nothing more, nothing less.

Years pass by, Allen Walker arrived and my life as an exorcist became more colorful and fun.

They surely changed me, molded me into a better person to be exact.

Okay, out of the memory lane. I guess Lavi and I had some kind of quiet competition on who can read the most books. Obviously, Lavi was winning because I was felt sleepy due to information overload.

"Screw this! You win!" I leaned my head against the table and began to rest.

"Of course! You can't― Goodnight Mira." I couldn't really hear anything clear but I felt something drape over my shoulder.

"Goodnight."
